Description Ed Noble 2013-10-02 13:41:39 UTC 
Hello .. ...
To whom it may concern .. .

There is a SERIOUS problem with the new openoffice version.
When the spreadsheet locks up and or crashes.  Openoffice
shuts down.  Then when you restart the system and Openoffice.
It starts the recoving process and tends to recover the closed
speadsheet.
everything looks good through the process.
BUT low and behold .. .. IT WIPES OUT ALL YOUR DATA
AND GIVES YOU A BLANK SPREADSHEET with only the name
of the sheet left.

I have lost spreadsheets that holds all of my business
information that was collected over 10 years
please look into this disasterious problem.!!!!!
